November 25, 1990|By Special to the sun

SMITHSBURG -- Colby Bachtell's 6-yard touchdown run in, the first quarter yesterday was all the offense Smithsburg (8-4) needed, and the Leopards advanced to the Class lA state final with a 9-0 win over visiting Rising Sun (6-6).

The Class lA title will be decided Saturday at High point when the Leopards meet Kent, which advanced Friday with a 33-13 win over Owings Mills.

The Leopards added a safety in the first quarter when a Rising Sun offensive lineman fell on a fumble in his end zone.
